Aircraft Rescue & Firefighting TrainingEASA Directive AB 1-1-17 has changed, and has created a greater requirement for training for European Airport Fire and Rescue Services. The updated directive requires aircraft training props that enable realistic training on the type of aircraft that aerodromes would normally receive. Training Base Weeze identified a distinct lack of training opportunities for this particular section in the industry, and created a set of bespoke training courses for all professionals who are affected by the update in the EASA directive.
While many airport fire and rescue services have the opportunity to training on ARFF simulators, structural firefighting training in buildings is often neglected. Apart from our aircraft training rigs, we offer a wide variety of structural objects to train on. We can offer a complete package.
Target GroupsAll fire services in the EASA area and beyond:• Airport fire services• Local authority fire and rescue services• Agencies involved in air crash and aerodrome incident response; police; ambulance; military; cabin crew, maintenance crew; and ground staff
Ongoing dialogue with our clients revealed:• A requirement for not just aircraft firefighting but also a need for a wider variety of incident response scenarios, including terrorist attacks and structural firefighting training.• A requirement to train of the type of aircraft commonly received at their own specific aerodromes. It makes no sense to train on A380s if they will never be present at your airport because the aerodrome is too small.• Airport firefighting staff has more than one job to do, so a minimum of travel time is required.
Advantages of ARFF training at Training Base Weeze• Our Passengers plane training rig has all been built according to EASA guidelines, and uses an internal Class A fire. It has also has both Airbus and Boeing doors for door handling as well as it being suitable for entry and search and rescue of casualties. • All our simulators have been completely furnished according to EASA guidelines.• We also offer realistic helicopter training in a clean Lynx for rescue and a Sikorsky rig for fire training.• We offer our courses in multiple languages, ea English, German, Dutch, French and Spanish.• Our highly-skilled aviation instructors come from a civil as well as a military back ground, and are all operational firefighters within the ARFF sector.
